Lily Allen has revealed that she has banned the use of all social media in her home.

The singer, who is mother to Ethel and Marnie was speaking to Fearne Cotton on Radio 1 and the pair were discussing the fact that their children will be growing up in the social media age.

"We ban all social media, all internet is banned in our house," she said.

"I'm just trying to say as much stuff as I possibly can so that when my kids are old enough to Google, all the bad things have got so far back in the internet they're on page 7,465,000.

"[I manage it] in probably the same way all other working mums manage it, you know?

"And actually, it's probably a lot easier for me because I've got a bit of money, and nannies, and my job's really fun, so it's fine. I'm very happy, very lucky."
